Fish Vs. Walrus.

Hey guys and gals, here's a quick set (and I do mean quick - ten pages in less than a week) that I did recently for Sore Thumb Press.

Pike Armstrong is a heroic goldfish from the future sent back in time in his robotic super suit to save the world from all manner of evil.

Here he is stopping a Walrus from robbing Mr. Moose's candy store.

Futuristic Fish and Ninjas in Nappies.

The last week has been pretty good in terms of work load, I've been working on a story about a crime fighting goldfish from the future (no really!) and have been averaging 2 pages a day - which is especially impressive as I normally move at the speed on a wheel clamped snail moving uphill.

With that project in the bag I've moved onto something a little less silly - a ninja baby and the spirit of her long dead grandfather. Hopefully I'll be able to work through this strip with a similar pace and be able to pick up some more work next week.

Don't forget to re-load this page often to keep an eye out for my Twitter updates on the right of the page. I may not be doing anything interesting, but it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside just having you guys along for the ride.

Plus it helps with the advert banner over there *whistles*

The Dog Ate It.

Hey guys.

This is something the wife and I were going to colour up and submit to a local comic book company, but abandoned the project when we moved onto another idea.

The concept for this strip was that every week, the dog would show up and get the kid (Kyle) into trouble and no one would belive him.



Any and all feedback welcomed.

DFC RIP.

So to clarify my Twitter updates yesterday, our comic book submission plans have hit a slight snag.

Heres how I posted the news on Digital Webbing yesterday:

"Good news!

Eva and I have been working on a submission to a uk comic book called the DFC. I've been writing drawing and lettering while she's been colouring. We've been working on the project on and off for three months and with two issued penciled, are finally ready to submit today. We're syked!

Bad news!

I've just found out through Tony Lee's column that the DFC has closed it's doors this morning.

Poobumfarts.


I don't know the hows and whys of the DFC's closure, but I know that there were some very talented people working for them. I'm sorry to see them go.

G."

Drat drat and double drat.

So if any of you guys know of any other well paying comic book anthologies, drop me a line.

Who Watches the Watchmen?

I do. Or rather I did, last night I mean.

Overall I dug it. There were a a few changes from the original novel, but that was to be expected. It did however stay close enough to the source material to remain "The Watchmen" as apposed to "Hollywood does The Watchmen".

If you've read the book, go and see the film. If you've not read the book - read the book.
